Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Wednesday that he does not anticipate Casas (ribs) being activated from the 60-day injured Thursday for the start of their series in Baltimore, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Casas had previously been ruled out through the end of the team's homestand and he won't be back for the start of its road trip, either. The first baseman seems poised to return from the IL any day now, but a precise date has been difficult to nail down. Casas has been shelved since late April with a cartilage tear in his left ribcage and has gone 8-for-30 with a 10:5 K:BB in eight rehab games with Triple-A Worcester.
